LOB CITY
The Lobster Pot Pie at Pearl Oyster Bar
Thirty inches of snow might happen. That’s lobster pot pie weather right there. And hey, here’s one of
those. It’s a classic from the Pearl menu. They haven’t made it for years, but they’re doing it now
through next week. So... check that one off your rare-pot-pies list.

SEIZE THE DAY
80% Off at Seize sur Vingt
Don’t try to tell us you couldn’t use a new Italian wool suit. And don’t give us any of that stuff
about not wanting a cashmere overcoat. Because here those things are, stunning, and for a hell of a lot less
than normal. So just save your objections.

SKETCHES OF SPAIN
Hey, It’s a New Spanish Tapas Brunch
Big news on the brunch front: Barraca’s doing it now. They’ve got Spanish deviled-egg flights, Spanish
chocolate flatbreads and Spanish meatballs from a grandmother’s old recipe. Believe it or not, it’s a
Spanish place. Which means you’re free to take a three-hour nap between plates.

FORGET IT, JAKE
It’s Chinese New Year. Let’s Dance.
Somewhere in all those timeless pearls of wisdom, Confucius said something about how there should be a
pop-up dance party/art installation at a Chinatown dim sum place to celebrate the Chinese New Year. And so
the party gods of Dark Disco are throwing one. It’s just basic tradition-respecting.

DIFFERENT STROKES
Tuesdays at the Gansevoort Rooftop Pool
You’re pretty familiar with the rooftop pool at the Gansevoort Park Avenue. You’re familiar with its
90-degree, indoor/outdoor perfection. And the other types of perfection that tend to congregate around it.
And now, it’s open for dips on Tuesday nights. Henceforth known as rooftop pool night.
